Shaun White sensationally snatched halfpipe gold after denying
Japanese teenager Ayumu Hirano with a superb final run in Pyeongchang. The 31-year-old American delivered a faultless 97.75 to secure his third Olympic halfpipe gold.
"I was so overwhelmed with happiness, I've been through so much to get here," said a tearful White.
"Waiting
for my final score was awful and amazing at the same time. I knew I did
a great ride and I was proud of that and I could walk away with my head
high."
